Pickerill Lecture Series

The Pickerill Lecture Series features speakers each year on a variety of topics such as history, science, politics, and social issues.

The Series is named after Dr. Max Pickerill, an educator for more than 60 years.  “Pick,” as he was known, earned the respect of countless students, peers and family members during his extraordinary career.  He began teaching chemistry at Colby Community College in 1974.  Although he officially retired in 2008, he continued teaching part-time until his death in May 2011.
